I'am looking into buying a boat with a hull made out of wood/epoxy.
The boat is a homebuild Bruce Roberts.
Of course I will have the boat surveyed but I want some more info on the (dis)advantages of this method of hull construction. I don't want to build the boat so I do not want info on how to build it but I like some info on longevity, maintenance, repair (in case of an accident) and how an insurance company will look at it. (Are they as apprehensive as with a Ferro cement hull). So the information required after you have build the boat.
Also I would like to know what the situation with osmosis is on these types of construction.
So like you see any info is welcomed. If somebody knows a good website this would be also appreciated.
